Looking for meson molecules in B decays
We discuss the possibility of observing a loosely bound molecular state in a
B three-body hadronic decay. In particular we use the QCD sum rule approach to
study a molecular current. We consider an isovector-scalar
molecular current and we use the two-point and
three-point functions to study the mass and decay width of such state. We
consider the contributions of condensates up to dimension six and we work at
leading order in . We obtain a mass around 1.1 GeV, consistent with a
loosely bound state, and a decay width
around 10 MeV.Comment: 7 pages, 8 figure
Final state hadronic interactions and non-resonant decays
We evaluate the non-resonant decay amplitude of the process using an approach based on final state hadronic interactions
described in terms of meson exchanges. We conclude that this mechanism
generates inhomogeneities in the Dalitz plot of the B decay.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures. Major changes. Version accepted for publication

Second Generation of 'Miranda Procedure' for CP Violation in Dalitz Studies of B (\& D \& \tau) Decays
The `Miranda Procedure' proposed for analyzing Dalitz plots for CP
asymmetries in charged B and D decays in a model-independent manner is extended
and refined. The complexity of CKM CP phenomenology through order
is needed in searches for New Dynamics (ND). Detailed analyses of three-body
final states other great advantages: (i) They give us more powerful tools for
deciding whether an observed CP asymmetry rep- resents the manifestation of ND
and its features. (ii) Many advantages can already be obtained by the `Miranda
Procedure' without construction of a detailed Dalitz plot de- scription. (iii)
One studies CP asymmetries independent of production asymmetries. We illustrate
the power of a second generation Miranda Procedure with examples with time
integrated rates for decays to final states as
trial runs with comments on .Comment: 29 pages, 7 figure
